Issue Summary

Jira’s DVCS integration currently requires direct repository-level webhooks from GitHub to function. Customers migrating to GitHub Cloud who use organization-level event distribution via systems like AWS SNS are unable to integrate without building and maintaining custom middleware.

Expected Results

Jira should support alternative event delivery mechanisms, such as consuming GitHub-style events from trusted pub/sub systems (e.g., SNS), reducing the need for customers to replicate webhook behavior externally.

Actual Results

Jira DVCS only accepts HTTP POST callbacks in the GitHub webhook format, signed with a per-repository secret. It does not support consuming events from systems like AWS SNS.
